About this episode
There is a biochemical reason why you might be feeling down or anxious and we’re going to be talking about why that is and how to get back to feeling good. In this episode we’ll be covering sugar’s addictive properties and how it can relate to mood disorders like depression. Registered dietitians Leah and Brandy will discuss sources of sugar, why it’s addictive, how it impacts your brain and inflammation levels, how to handle sugar withdrawal, and ways to reduce your sugar intake for better moods.
